Bed & Breakfast Accommodation

Ridgewood
~ New Zealand Farmstay
Bed & Breakfast accommodation with real kiwi hospitality. Located
north of Marton, just a few minutes from SH1 in the heart of the Rangitikei,
this
delightful battened `English style' historic farm homestead restored and extended was built at the turn of
the 20th century from native timber 'pit sawn' on site. Best described
as a `charming country lodge', the character suggests a `arts & crafts'
Chapman-Taylor feel featuring an exposed beam chapel ceiling, wooden door
latches, battened ceilings and native timbers throughout. Accommodation
furnishings are in keeping with the era. A walk through this classic homestead
with medieval shaped doors and guest bedroom accommodation both spacious
and homely may well spark your stay with childhood memories of grandmothers
day. Start
the day with a hearty farm breakfast including fresh organic farm eggs.
Vegetarian and GF breakfasts are also available.
What else is for breakfast?

Enjoy
the secluded relaxation, peace and tranquility
of the private native bush and large garden surrounding the homestead.

Mature
Rhododendron and Camellia trees planted at the turn of the 20th century
provide a stunning mass of colour from July to November.

Ridgewood
commands panoramic views across acres of farm land to the Ruahine ranges
that you can enjoy all year round.

Private
native bush is literally at the back door, fringing the accommodation
and garden and is home to Tui's bellbirds, quail, and wood pigeons. The
gliding wood pigeons have been described as nothing short of spectacular.
Ridgewood
farms sheep and has many other farm animals.
Of interest are the Cape Barren Geese, pheasants,
`Raj' our friendly peacock and the many varieties of land and water fowl
that free range the property.

that romantic bed & breakfast weekend away, farm holiday or just time
